the wings are beautiful -- She looks so sad though.. christmas is supposed to be a time of joy...

It's neat though

The feet don't quite look natural. I don't think the fabric would naturally fall in a way that would reveal that much of the feet. And she does look a bit sad. Aside from that, very sweet.

Thanks for the comments, guys. I really like the feet, personally, but maybe because I like the big foot look. Hahaha...She is slightly smiling, but the colouring kinda reduced the smile, unfortunately. Anyway, I didn't want her to have a big grin, only because I wanted her to have a more reverant look.

Here is another version I did for Starbucks (where I work). What do you think of the layout? PS: I added a little to the smile.

I think she's lovely!

I like how much her eyes smile. Good job with that!

Thank you Cello. Unfortunately, I showed this drawing to my shift supervisor at work and was completely shot down. She said: "No. We can't put that up, period." I guess it was too religious (and thus, offensive), but to me that's kinda stupid especially since we offer "Christmas Blend" during the holidays. She told me to draw something neutral, like a Christmas tree (which is still religious, as it represents the cross, according to nwlinkvxd's mother).

It just really hurt after I spend like three hours on it. She totally just looked over it like it was super easy to do or something.

I use a CD cover programme, where it fits it into the size of a CD.

LPM-

She's beautiful! As for your manager at Starshmucks... well, that's par for the course these days.... damned `political correctness`. At any rate, you did a wonderful job!
